~Quinn’s Point of View~

I was currently looking at Tyson, my daughter’s fated mate. But also, technically my employee, one of my warriors. He was making his move, asking me to put him in the tournament. He had no clue that I knew already … that I already had plans. Leonard knew I was taking Shadrick out, but he never did bother to ask me who was going in his place.

“That’s … interesting. What makes you interested in Livia,” I ask, trying to bait him.

“She’s an incredible woman, and I’m … unmated. It would be an honor,” he simply says.

I knew he was sweating bullets. I never imagined he would have the balls to come to me like this. I was impressed. Tyson was already going to be Shadrick’s replacement, but no one knew that. I would deal with whatever fallout came from taking Shadrick out, I might have to pay off his parents.

But, the more I thought about it, I supposed I needed to discuss with Tyson why I was doing it ahead of time. I was a blunt person, I didn’t have time for bullshit

    ~Livia’s Point of View~After what any girl would consider an absolute dream date, probably the best day of her life, I find myself back at Jasper’s apartment, scared shitless. I'm standing in my gown in front of his huge windows, not knowing what to do with myself. The city is unbelievably breathtaking at night. I can’t imagine getting to see this everyday, it is literally like a movie. “Here you go darling,” he says, handing me a glass of wine. Slightly chilled but not too cold. He probably has a special fridge just for it.I notice right away he doesn’t have a glass and I think that seems a little odd. Does he think I need to be drunk to spend the night with him? I’d already had enough at dinner and since I wasn’t a big drinker I was already past my limit. But then again I never want to be rude. That's Livia ... always wanting to appease everyone.“Thank you,” I say, taking it from him. I can just sip it slowly, though alcohol is the last thing I want. I needed to get this dress of

    ~River’s Point of View~ I gathered what I felt were the most important things we’d found at Blood Claw for Quinn to review and I drafted an Order for him to sign that would allow for the attorney to read Gunner’s will. I was now seated in Quinn’s office awaiting his arrival and while I told myself not to wonder why Quinn was so interested in Gunner’s affairs, it was bugging me. It had been about three years since our war, and if anyone should have been interested, it should have been my dad since he was the werewolf representative on the council. Then I had to ask myself, why didn’t dad send a team in there to look for Gunner’s financials and other important documents? You’d think that would have been a priority, to find out who else he may have been working with and all that. Not to mention if there was a lot of money, it should probably go to his victims. Some of it may have been theirs to begin with anyhow. I thought of every possible reason that Quinn, of all people ... could

    ~Tyson’s Point of View~She came to me, my sexy as hell mate. I thought for sure I was dreaming, but if I was then Diego certainly wouldn’t be in the bed next to us. Her hair was wet, she’d just showered. I had to wonder if it was to get Jasper’s smell off of her, but I couldn’t think about it.She wanted me, she might not understand why but she did, she wanted me to comfort her. She was spending the night with me and not Jasper. I held her tight and found sleep immediately, lost in the smell of her hair.I dreamed about our wedding, even though shifters don’t normally have a wedding … some do if their mate wants it. Livia lived her life mostly as a human, out in the open, so she’d want a wedding. I wouldn’t have a ton of money to put toward such a thing, let alone a honeymoon. But I would definitely try to get her the ring of her dreams, even if I had to take out a loan or something. I’d make it work. The ring is the most important thing to a bride I think. I mean, she’s going to loo

    ~Livia’s Point of View~I finally made it to breakfast Tuesday morning since I hadn’t been making it to breakfast and I knew it was expected. My father was MIA but my mom was in her usual form, already throwing back some breakfast cocktails. “Is a Bloody Mary technically a salad,” I ask, watching my mom stir her drink with a giant piece of celery. I'm sure if I tried I could be more sarcastic, but it'll be lost on her anyhow.“Oh Livvie,” she says, waving me off.“Good morning beautiful,” I hear just to my side.I turned to see Orion, dressed in a preppy looking collared shirt and khaki shorts. He is absolutely drool worthy and a breath of fresh air after yesterday. He seems so uncompllicated. What you see is what you get. But with an fairy I am fully aware that isn't at all the case. You peel off even one layer and you probably won't like what you find.“Hey, how are you,” I ask, trying my best to be pleasant. I mean, he hadn’t yet done anything to creep me out or offend me so yes, I

    ~Quinn’s Point of View~I spent the morning at the council’s headquarters, even though I’d said I was off limits for court, unfortunately there were some things that couldn’t wait. We’d had to call an emergency afternoon session of court once Godfrey woke, and I had to hurry it along so I could get back back for my announcement. Also, River had left me a note he needed to see me right away, but I would have to come to him at home.“We’ll get River on this case right away,” Ash said, banging his gavel to end the court session. “I’m afraid River is tied up this week, he’s handling something for me,” I say immediately.“Using the Shadows as your own person errand boys like Godfrey,” Dina says, snickering.“I’m sure Quinn has a good reason … and he’s more than willing to share it,” Godfrey chimes in, giving me the evil eye. Keeping a secret from him is damn near impossible. I might be intimidating, wealthy and powerful but Godfrey is Godfrey. Nobody tells him no. Except his mate, we all k

  • The Triplet Warriors and Their Pup Mate(Shadow Warrior Series)   27 - It Should Be Me

    ~Livia’s Point of View~We’d been sitting around, dressed in our best … waiting for my father to return from court for nearly an hour. Sitting in a room with my drunk mother, my annoying siblings, my horny suitors, Leonard and the Shadows was just about the most awkward fucking thing imaginable.Well, marrying one of the stupid suitors was the most awkward and awful thing imaginable at the moment. I was getting increasingly anxious for Shadrick’s date tomorrow as I looked up from my losing hand of cards to look for him in the crowd.I hadn’t really noticed since my sisters had been talking me to death, but now that I did look around, I was quickly noticing that Shadrick wasn’t here. Maybe he’s not feeling well? Hmm I hadn’t seen him since breakfast but then again I didn’t go out of my way to find the suitors.“Sorry to keep you all waiting,” I finally hear from the doorway.We all rise to our feet instinctively, and my father waves his hands for us all to sit. “Thank you all for waiti

    ~Tyson’s Point of View~“It’s going to be Tyson,” Quinn announces.I grin, and lock eyes with the only person who matters, the only person whose opinion I care about … my beautiful Livia.Everyone gawks at me and I don’t know if I was supposed to say something or what. Damn, I should have thought that through.“Thank you for the vote of confidence councilor. I greatly look forward to this opportunity,” I say, trying to sound sincere. Shit I don’t know how it sounds. “What’s the meaning of this? Some kind of inside job,” Jasper snaps, getting to his feet.My eyes dart back to Quinn for an answer, this is his problem to explain. Quinn looks a bit flustered, and maybe he hadn’t planned to be questioned. As a councilor, no one ever questioned him, that I knew of … but this was different.“No more inside than Leonard helping you? Telling you my favorite things,” Livia shouts, looking completely pissed off. My wolf practically rolls in my mind with amusement.Ohh snap!! I wonder what happe

    ~Livia’s Point of View~ I had just showered the wolf and sex smell off of myself, much to my dismay. I couldn’t understand how it had only been a few days of this crazy ass tournament. A few days of knowing Tyson, a few days that seemed like eternity. I sigh to myself just as there is a knock on the door. I shoot up, just wearing a barely thigh length light blue babydoll nightie, as I was certainly not expecting company. The clock on the nightstand reads 12:20am. I grab my robe and tiptoe to the door. I take a deep breath … Orion. I cock my head to the side, curious. I open the door and peek out. “Sorry to bug you, but I saw the light was still on,” he says, giving me his best beach boy smile. I open the door the rest of the way and smile back. Orion was an anomaly in the tournament. He hadn’t ever given me a creepy vibe, he was unbelievably good looking and just seemed like a fun person to be around. I had already decided I would certainly be open and give him a fair shake. “It

  • The Triplet Warriors and Their Pup Mate(Shadow Warrior Series)   Epilogue - Part Two

    Ben and I had talked about doing an actual ceremony, for him it was an important thing. Tradition. He assured me ours would be completely different from anything he’d done before, that the vows he made with other women were somewhat superficial. More of a just a promise they could join his family and that he was willing to have a child with them. More like a guarantee he’d get to sleep with them on demand. I still struggled with that sometimes. How do I just walk around knowing that all these women had shared something so special and intimate with MY mate? It wasn’t like they were one night stands. I knew it would get better, the more distance I could put between them and him, but it still tugged at my self esteem. It was even harder trying to help care for Dorothy and Calista’s children, especially since even now they still asked for their moms. Sometimes they cried out for them at night. A few times we both slept in their rooms with them. Dorothy was banished for five years, then

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ “Don’t you just feel like a cow sometimes,” I muttered, staring down at my adorable twin pups that seemed to drink me dry each time they nursed. They were so cute when they weren’t screaming. When they weren’t crapping their pants. When they were just … motionless. *My beautiful babies,* Coral cooed. “Yeah, but it's such an incredible bond,” Lilly said, as I turned to cut my eyes at her. She was four months pregnant with their sixth child and THANKFULLY it was only one baby this time. I thought they were all insane. I nearly said, ditch the crap woman, I’m a freaking milk cow, a spit up rag and yesterday Reed whizzed in my face while I was bathing him! “It gets easier, they’re only six weeks old,” Lilly said, running her finger over Hazel’s cheek. That’s what they ALL keep saying. “It gets easier.” Ah huh. *We have been getting more sleep lately,* Coral protested. Yeah right, like SHE ever gets up. Really, I had no right to complain, since I had mo

  • The Triplet Warriors and Their Pup Mate(Shadow Warrior Series)   52 - We Are The Fight

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ I barely had to wait another minute for several vampires to try swarming in. Oftentimes there are some creatures that will take on a not so common alliance for the sake of a power grab. I knew in my bones that’s all this was, unless this sister had taken one as a mate. While you’d expect Godfrey to perhaps have reservations about killing his own kind, he absolutely didn’t. As a councilor, he took that shit pretty seriously. If they wanted to fuck around and be stupid, test the waters well, that was on them. I stood still watching as numerous Shadow vampires, witches and fairies seemed to descend from nowhere, and I also recognized two of Godfrey’s children. He likely called them through their bond, but I was pleased for the support. I bounced around, throwing some fireballs from my fingertips and even conjuring up some various weapons such as shurikens or ninja stars, which were one of Godfrey’s favorite things. Only it was hard for him to touch silver unless

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ My heart swelled as I watched Daisy doting on Ash. Since their mating bond had been broken, they re-mated and apparently all that entailed. They were both like young teenagers in love all over again, and it was a sight to behold. I couldn’t wait to bring Meadow to see. They had been left alone for a couple of days, much like my little love and I. But now guests and well wishers poured in from all over the place. I could tell he was grateful and overwhelmed but the relief on everyone’s faces seemed to rejuvenate him. Shane and Godfrey had brought him up to speed on all that transpired and he kept insisting he was to blame in some fashion for not having a security detail and allowing himself to be caught. It was all we could do to reassure him that we were all to blame. I felt I was more so than anyone. Apparently this attack had been decades in the making. Ash was just an innocent bystander, but as not only a Shadow but also a councilor he knew the risks. Doe

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ *Are you happy now,* I whined, scolding Coral. She didn’t answer, but instead played like she was asleep. Jerk! This was now the third night I’d been in the mountains with my mate, and while I’d felt the heat mostly subside a few hours ago we still couldn’t keep our hands off each other. I was beyond exhausted and not at all sure my legs would work. “And that position was called the hill but since I can levitate us I can actually hit you from underneath with a bit of acrobatics,” Ben said, running his fingers over my butt. I laid breathless, my head in a pillow, totally spent. I just wanted to sleep for a couple days, how the hell did he have this kind of stamina?? I mean he practically died just a few days ago! *Males always make an effort when it comes to their release,* Coral said, yawning. I had no doubt that was the absolute truth. When I had said I wanted to spend time in the coven’s library learning, I hadn’t realized I already had my own personal

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ It was obvious my little love wasn’t yet capable or able to express herself in words when it came to sex, but her body told a different story. The fact that Meadow was still so shy, so bashful could not have possibly been a bigger turn on. If I could get her to the point where she talked dirty to me, I’d be coming in my pants just by her words. All the women in my life had always been so daring, so sure of themselves. Her sweet innocence, her timid nature and her untouched body was all too much. I felt as though I had split personalities … on the one hand I wanted to be her fierce protector, the macho male who puffs out his chest and kills a spider in the bathroom just to be her hero. Then fuck her relentlessly to further stake my claim and beat my chest. On the other hand, I wanted to sing the songs of love and make sweet love to her for hours on end. I’d serenade her in Greek, as the words of love just sounded better than in English… I’d make her dinner and t

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ “She must die, she’s lied to us all for decades. She’s kept you from Georgia, and Little Ben was just…” Sebastian trailed off. Coral shivered, remembering our brief time with the boy. He was so hopeful, curious. Yet he knew his days were numbered, how depressing. There was too much having us all on edge, especially since we were waiting for word about my father. Clearly I didn’t have the same attachment to Athena as everyone else, as her own son would. But if this was how he felt about it… Our eyes darted to Ben. “Fifty years of banishment, then we reconsider. Give her the same courtesy she gave to me,” he finally said. Numerous others murmured in agreement. “On the matter of Georgia I’m not as easily able to decide. We’re going to give her a chance to prove herself. I believe we define ourselves on the decisions we make and while some … have to be made in the blink of an eye, they can still very much have very real consequences. Georgia has lost, she ha

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ I was certain I’d missed a hell of a lot while I was knocked out, but there was no time for trips down memory lane. No time to address the pain that still wracked my body. The reek of the venom that was still radiating from my pores. The fact that my mate smells of pure arousal, and was laying on top of me in her panties with my blood on her hands. Definitely need more of an explaination on that. Everyone is depending on me, I have to do this. It has to work. I briefly said a prayer to the Goddess that we often ask her to pass on to through our ancestors. To draw on their power when we need it. Then I began the spell as I recalled it, hoping like hell it worked. Katrina and Cleo came to either side of me, and we locked arms. Sebastian should be here, even Athena’s strength would be good. But no time now. Just as I had that thought Georgia appeared in front of me and got between Katrina and I. Her scent immediately calmed me, it was what helped my younger self
